The Laundry matron will be required to keep a strict
account of the clothing sent to the wash, writing down the prices and seeing
when they are returned that they are all correct as to the number and
cleanliness.
No clothing either for the beds or men to be given out
except by an order from Mrs. Pember or under her supervision.
The clothing taken out must be always returned clean by the
end of the week if taken out at the commencement. All the clothing or materials

through her.
